Answer:

If the blood glucose level falls to dangerous levels (as during very heavy exercise or lack of food for extended periods), the alpha cells of the pancreas release glucagon, a hormone whose effects on liver cells act to increase blood glucose levels.

When NADH or NADPH transfers electrons to a recipient molecule, the recipient becomes reduced and the activated carriers are oxi
Allushta [10]

Answer:

NAD is a coenzyme found in all cells. It consists of two nucleotides linked through their phosphate groups with a nucleotide that contains an adenosine ring and another that contains nicotinamide.

Explanation:

In metabolism, NAD participates in oxidation reduction reactions. This coenzyme is found in two forms in the cells: NAD and NADH. NAD accepts electrons from other molecules and is reduced, forming NADH, which you can use as a reducing agent to donate electrons. These electron transfer reactions are the main function of the NAD.

In living organisms, NAD can be synthesized from scratch from the amino acids tryptophan or aspartic acid. Some NADs are found in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP), whose chemistry is similar to NAD, although it has different functions in metabolism.

Which statement describes the reaction for cellular respiration?
mixer [17]

The equation is glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide + water and energy is produced in the form of ATP.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process in which glucose combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water with energy stored as ATP.

    Glucose + Oxygen gas → Carbon dioxide + Water + energy in ATP

ATP is Adenosine TriPhosphate.

In the body, during cellular respiration, oxygen gas is inhaled and carried to sites in the body where food in form of glucose obtained from plant is broken down.

When food is broken down aerobically i.e in the presence of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide and water is produced and energy is stored in form of ATP.
